Daggers in the Night [Concluded]

[Secura]

atleast make it worth your while and make it a double lynch.

There is no double-lynch; if there is a tie, the Naib has to decide the outcome... this is my final lynch as Naib, so I would have to choose whether to lynch you, Seon or allow you both to live.

Nothing against Secura but her orders were ... for lack of better, words more out of self preservation than because of any other logic I can see. She did nothing wrong but also didn't help the daggers out in any way thus I see no reason to vote for her candidate.

Self-preservation how?

Renata's pretty much a better player to me; you're paying her a disrespect by tarring her with a similar brush to me.

[The Stranger]

well... than you can save the town their effort and decide already who you are going to lynch in case of a tie.

unvote:vote: seon

i guess it is a tie now.

[Secura]

well... than you can save the town their effort and decide already who you are going to lynch in case of a tie.

Yes, I already have made that decision and informed the host.

[Splitpersonality]

Vote: Abstain

I trust our Naib's decision

Voting concluded. Write-up will follow.

Day 4 - Conclusion

The day was coming to an end and voting was concluded.

Before announing the name of the lynchee, Secura humbly bowed before the gathered daggers and offered her resignation. She suggested to elect their honorable sister, Renata. Allthough some daggers had more trust in the man who changed his name as frequently as others changed their underwear, most trusted Secura’s suggestion.

Before handing over the position of Naib to her beloved sister, Secura did the vote count for the last time.

She looked at the very talkative Dutch guy. The strange dagger looked back. For once, he was silent. The Naib looked down at her notes again.

“Seon, please come forward,” she said.

Seon came forward, a worried expression on his face.

Secura nodded. "Indeed, it is you."

"Ha! I'm not scared!" a pale looking Seon said, trembling and shaking all over his body.

"Apparently, your own vote was the deciding vote."

Seon laughed hysterically.

“As you may know, the Moors who built this magnificent building, used water as an element to bring harmony and piece. Could you please bow down in front of this pool, dear Seon.”

"See if I care!" Seon said, still laughing hysterically; but he did as was told.

With a strength most people did not expect from this lovely looking woman, Secura put Seons' head under the water, stopping his laughter very suddenly, and kept it in that position with a strong grip. Seon struggled to free himself, but Secura was stronger. After a few moments, Seon stopped moving.

Secura dragged him out of the water and walked towards a tree; a rope was placed on its' foot.

She looked at Sasaki, opened her mouth, paused for a while and then picked up the piece of rope herself. In no time, she had Seon hanging on a branch of the tree. Sasaki nodded approvingly.

Wiping out the sweat of her forehead, Secura sat down.

“Time for tea,” she said, seemingly exhausted from the hard work.

The daggers waited patiently. 15 minutes later, Secura stood up and cut Seon loose.

“Sasaki, can I have your sword, please?”

“Of course, mylady.”

Much to the daggers' surprise he drew his katana in one fluid movement and reached Secura without stumbling.

“Thank you,” the Naib said.

She walked towards the very silent Seon and beheaded him. She finished the job with a wooden stake through his heart.

“Are you sure he’s dead?” one of the daggers asked, a wee bit of sarcasm in his voice.

Secura ignored the comment and bowed for the daggers.

“It has been a pleasure to be your Naib, but I’m sure Renata will do a much better job.”

And so, another day ended.

Some people post only once/twice per game day and never at night. Good way to hide if they're never in the spotlights.

[Beefy187]

Caught up to the thread... Finally.
Wouldn't have made it anyway if I voted ASAP when I woke up.

I would've elected Renata. Seems like a decent choice.
Yaseikhaan would've been good too. His mass Bandwagon may be a semi effective way to pick up a mafia.

For the votes, Seon was a good choice. TS may be over aggressive. But he didn't go off limits and be offensive. He played within the rule book, and players who can openly oppose the main stream opinion should be appreciated.

[Askthepizzaguy]

“Sasaki, can I have your sword, please?”

“Of course, mylady.”

Much to the daggers' surprise he drew his katana and accidentally sliced her head off.

Secura, you're very brave. I thought you were dead right about here. But I guess Sasaki really is harmless.

[Seon]

Oh be quiet.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Sasaki Kojiro was a real life famous swordsman you know. Skilled wielder of the "Laundry drying pole", and pioneer of the "Swallows blade" technique. Just because he lost to a guy with a wooden sword...

[Greyblades]

I'm guessing it would be awkward if someone was to sign up with Miyamoto Musashi as thier screen name.

Hmm...

[Renata]

Hmm, what, split? Say what you're implying, maybe I'll vig someone.

[Splitpersonality]

Just Hmmm...

I'm not sure I can rightfully suggest anyone to vig right now, looking at my own track record in this game. Just nothing that there seem to be quite a few people who are almost uncharacteristically lurking...


Though again, pot, kettle, black, and all that.

Hmm...

Hi.

One question: Does not posting during the night phase have any implication on whether or not the said persons are Mafia? The only sudden reason is that we would be thinking really hard on who to kill. So hard that we couldn't post at night. Which is of course silly.

Quit fooling around in the public thread and get back to our QT, we need to seriously think about our next two kills and who we can incriminate.

I dislike voting based on that. You should vote based on the content of a post(s).

[Splitpersonality]

I'm not saying you're any more guilty than anyone else Jolt, just looking at the list was all :D

[GeneralHankerchief]

I've heard some talk about inactivity, myself included. For this I apologize. I've been slowly burning out on Mafia games for a while now, at least a month and a half to two months. You'll notice my complete lack of activity post-death in Shadow Fort, Inishmore, and Star Wars? I need to scale back my involvement for a while, probably at least until I start work, in which I'll (ironically) have more time to get into things. Hopefully I'll be able to get internet in the tollbooth this summer...

But yeah, in the meantime, don't expect too many stellar contributions from my direction. Again, apologies to all. Haven't really been myself the past couple of months, at least in here.

Doing that is not only beneficial for the mafias, but for protowns too.
And also for townies who can't act like one.

[The Stranger]

w000tz000rs!!! im alive! hahha i thought i was dead for sure. why did u decide to keep me alive secura? i thought ud pick me over seon.

oh i see now... hmm he actually had more votes. haha he died cuz he voted for himself -_-

[Secura]

w000tz000rs!!! im alive! hahha i thought i was dead for sure. why did u decide to keep me alive secura? i thought ud pick me over seon.

In the event that there was a tie, I informed Andres that my decision was to lynch Seon over you... I'm not as petty, incapable or self-minded as may be thought.

Let's just say I have a pepperoni-laden voice of reason on my shoulder and it became clear to me that you can't be mafia because your behaviour is more a hinderance than a help (to the mafia as well as town) in the way that there's so much attention poured onto you... whereas we didn't know too much about Seon and it was a bit suspicious that he popped up so suddenly after remaining quiet for so long. :3

[Askthepizzaguy]

Know this however; I'm not going to expend even more valuable time and energy defending a certain someone, especially when everyone I've spoken to would rather see that certain someone silenced, townie or not.

I've done all I can. I recommend turning over a new leaf, because I will not be advocating for one's life in the future. This is a team game, so I recommend toning down on the distractions and the comments that people find less than helpful.

[The Stranger]

i dont know what you are talking about.

sofar the only reason i am a distraction is because they allow themselves to be distracted.

but because pizza asks so nice, i will try this new approach for once and see where it gets me. if however i am again a candidate for lynch next turn, all hell will break loose.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Thank you.

People want to like you, I'm trying to help them with that. But honestly I want to save our lynches too.

[The Stranger]

As you can see, TS is loading up Empire: Total War for his first look. He struggles to win the tutorial battle while having to listen to the rest of the people ask questions about D&D.
